Sculpture trip with workshop
In Patara on the south coast of Turkey, stone sculptor Martin Wiese regularly organises sculpting trips for beginners and advanced sculptors. Together with the Turkish archaeologist Ünal Demirer, an understanding of the more than 2000-year-old buildings and works of art is first created during several excursions to Lycian antiquity. This will stimulate and inspire the seminar participants to incorporate elements of what they have seen and heard into their own stone work.
Martin Wiese and Ünal Demirer offer a stone carving course with various excursions in this beautiful and inspiring ambience. You will stay at the Hotel Patara View Point above the village of Gelemis with a magnificent view over the bay of Patara. Next to the swimming pool there is a small olive grove where we will be working. We will have breakfast and lunch at the hotel. For an evening snack, there are several restaurants down in the village where you can savour or get to know Turkish cuisine.
Patara is a pearl on the Lycian coast, as it is not infested by mass tourism and offers a magnificent landscape: the Taurus Mountains in the background with their lush green forests harmonise perfectly with the turquoise of the Aegean Sea. The beach at Patara is more than 18 kilometres long and has fine sand. You can admire the archaeological excavations here in Patara at almost every turn. Patara was a flourishing harbour town in ancient times, and the ancient Lycians and Romans have bequeathed a cultural heritage to the town - the ancient lighthouse and the old Roman baths, to name just two.
The streetscape of Gelemis, the small village in the immediate vicinity of ancient Patara, is characterised by tranquillity and serenity and provides an insight into everyday life in a Turkish village.
